The following matrix provides information about reimbursable expenses depending on staff classification. Each staff classification is defined with a tier level. Increasing tier levels correlate with increased moving expenses which will be reimbursable. Please review the Business and Finance Bulletin G-28 for a complete list of allowable costs and reimbursable moving expenses. Below is only a summary of who qualifies for each type of reimbursable moving expense.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (P.L. 115-97) impacts the taxability of moving expense reimbursements provided by the University. Reimbursements for moving expenses made to employees or paid directly to third parties by the University will be included in wage income subject to federal income tax withholding and FICA.
